I took this photograph at the National Park in Georgetown on Emancipation Day, August 1, 2017. From left to right are; Dr. Mark Kirton, Dr David Hinds, Former Prime Minister Samuel Hinds, Minister of Public Infrastructure, David Patterson, Educator Nigel Wesmaas, and Roving Ambassador, Wesley Kirton.
Looking at this photograph you will observe that there are some doubles; Two Kirtons. Two University Professors. Two Davids. Two Hinds. Two sitting Parliamentarians. Two long-standing members of the WPA. Two with PhDs.
And By-the-way, just in case you consider this Pepperpot Feature of Photographs as being frivolous, just observe the statement on the Blue Board at the back which reads, “Indulge in life’s little treats.” Also observe how these Guyanese of varying political persuasions came together in Social Cohesion and were so happy in each other’s company.
